Solo piano, c.4'30.
I interviewed Chick Corea in the 1980s. He was one of my heroes then, and already a towering figure in jazz. His stature continued to grow with every new direction and new collaboration until his death in early 2021. This is a humble tribute.

Solo piano, c.3'50.
Joyflight imagines a plane ride in an aerobatics display – propeller spinning, taking off and riding thermals ever higher until we’re gliding through clouds, then diving, spinning, yawing and looping loops, before picking up a tailwind for a bumpy ride home (but a smooth landing).

Flute Quartet, c.6'40. Advanced grade
A modern take on a courtly dance, from Elizabethan times perhaps. Couples promenade with dignified grace, demurely bowing and curtsying. But soon, as shy eyes meet and hearts start to race, the frisson of courtly romance fills the air. Dresses whirl, passions surge and inhibitions melt away, courtly manners give way to country matters and the evening takes a decidedly indecorous turn.
